Christians are believers and followers of Christ. They believe in only one God‚ who is believed to be the creator and maker of all things

The quote that most provoked thought and emotion from within me comes from the essay "Self-Reliance" by Ralph Waldo Emerson. "To be great is to be misunderstood" was used by Emerson to explain the lagging growth of the conception of ideas and thoughts of his generation.
